"Alone Again, Naturally" by Gilbert O'Sullivan is one of the saddest songs I know but I love it. Used to really break me up when I'd listen to it. It's from the 70's. The guy was a one hit wonder but he nailed it on that tune. He wrote another very nice tune called "Claire" where you think it's a ballad to a girl he loves but in the end it turns out to be an affectionate song to his toddler niece whom he's been babysitting the whole time. I wonder if anybody remembers that tune.

Not a pop song by any stretch...just got done listening to Bravado by Rush (man...that drummer is an octopus!); and gave a thought over to our troops and the memorial day service at the end of our parade Monday. "We will pay the price/but we will not count the cost". In the right mood, at the right time, can bring tears.
